Thanks Brian

I look at so many cars, it takes me a while

It's sad that the excitement of possibly finding a deal like that is always overshadowed with the likelihood of being a scam.

I have had several friends call me about this current "good deal" car not knowing it is a a scam. The first thing I ask is it the Craig's list red car? When I inform them it is a scam they are disappointed but thank me. Thank you all for doing the detective work so we can all, if put in the position help others keep from get taken.

20 cents on the dollar is wishful thinking 😁

I've been flagging their ad for weeks now.  They keep reposting. 
I guess people are falling for it sadly!

It was advertised on an Idaho Craigslist page too.

This is likely organized crime, not random jackoffs.

They also impersonate websites and advertise cars

It's really hard to catch these scammers unless you can get some true details about them...name, bank account name and account details. Many just want to get deposits through electronic means which makes it harder to trace.  Most authorities won't spend time unless it is a significant amount of money or they can gather evidence of many scammed by the same person and group it together into one case.
